At rifle highschool I have gotten the chance to do many different programs. i do sports such as volleyball and track and field. these sports make me who i am and rifle is good at sports. i love the learning environment and the effort from the teachers.

I would like to see some changes in the athletic programs at the high school. Going along with that throughout my experience at Rifle High School there has never been much consistency, whether that be with administration, coaches, or teachers. However, with that being said the students have learned to adapt well and have been able to build good relationships with those who stick around.

I went to Rifle High School for all 4 years of my highschool career. I was incredibly involved, they have a lot of opportunities for all students and most of the staff seriously cares for their students.

Run far and as fast away from this school as you can. You can't expel your way to a better Great School rating!!!!Do your kids and yourself a favor and find somewhere else!

I have two children attend RHS and was so disappointed in the staff and how they handle issues, whether bahavior or grades. I felt there was only 1 teacher who truly cared about my student and was a mentor. There was never any communication from the teachers or working together with parents if issue...
2/21/2013
Very few caring teachers who actually teach. Poor leadership from the staff. I wish I hadn't waited until 11th grade to pull her out.
